Molenda & Murphy Invite Wrap Up

Friday, October 2 2020 - Molenda & Murphy Invite


Yesterday the cross country team hosted the 'Molenda & Murphy' Invite. This was the first meet on campus in over 30 years!  It was a great day as the Crusaders swept all 3 races!  The frosh-soph were victorious going 1-2-3 with Charley Duggan won his second race of the season, followed closely by Danny Macis & Tommy WittJack Gorman and Antonio Fox placed sixth and ninth to round out the scoring.  Joey Bowes & Jack Brouder also ran strong races.  All 7 runners ran personal bests!  

 
The varsity team was in a tight battle with Stagg when the heavens opened up and a downpour occurred in the middle of the race.  This is exactly what the 'running ugly' harriers needed as they 
crushed the second half of the race to secure a 24-32 victory!  Mikey Corcoran won his 1st cross country race of this career with Eddie Burke right behind to place first & second.  Charlie Walsh, Sean McNally, Sean Deane & Connor Melean all crossed the line within four second of each other and all with personal bests.  
 
Jack Antonsen's individual victory completed the sweep and led the JV team in a two point victory.  Seniors Tom Skrypkun, Kevin Lynch, Kyle Gallagher, & Adrian Campos rounded out the scoring.   Thanks to everyone who supported the team on a big day for the program.  
 
The team races again next Friday as they host the 'Rice Twilight' on senior night.
